Chapter 747: Joining forces to attack Qin

The fine work of various countries is still somewhat capable, at least the information on the appearance and outline of the Qin Wang cannon and the materials used for casting it was still probed out and sent out of Hangu Pass.

But the most important thing, that is, how to make this great ritual vessel loud, is not known.

The only thing they knew was that they had to stuff a pack of silk-wrapped stuff into the barrel of a cannon before using it, and then stuff it into an iron ball.

Iron balls are not difficult and can be made quickly.

Silk countries also have it, and it is not a particularly rare thing.

However, the most important thing is what is wrapped in the silk, no one knows.

In order to be able to obtain a physical object, the meticulous workers of various countries rushed to the Qin people's military camps and warehouses one after another, wanting to get the most precious things.

But the result was a failure without exception.

All countries have attached so much importance to it, and the Qin State has naturally attached more importance to it.

Each packet of propellant is uniquely numbered, and the sergeants who are in charge of protection check it three times a day.

And whether it is in the warehouse or in the barracks, it is extremely heavily guarded.

The sergeants knew very well that once they were lost, according to Qin Law's system of joint sitting, everyone would disappear with their families.

And except for the special charge arranged by Yingzheng, there is no need to listen to the orders of any general.

Under such strict protection, the meticulous workers naturally can't get their hands on it.

As for the manufacturing workshop, few people in Daqin knew the specific location, let alone the meticulous workers.

Under the many difficulties, only Prince Dan knew, and the only one who knew best what was wrapped in this silk was the Taifu except for King Qin.

Therefore, the meticulous workers of the Yan Kingdom died down, waiting for the prince Dan to leave before they started.

Prince Dan did not stay for too long, under the terrible deterrent brought by the Qin Wang Cannon, Yan and Zhao quickly reconciled, and Prince Dan naturally did not continue to be a hostage, begging the Qin State to send troops.

The convoy of Prince Dan here left Xianyang City, and the fine workers of the Yan Kingdom over there began to wander around the Taifu Mansion.

The order left by Prince Dan was that it was best to be able to capture and send it to Yan Kingdom.

If you can't do it, just dispose of it!

What you can't get is destroyed, this is the general rule of the Warring States period.

This is not the end, the countries have once again refreshed their understanding of Qin's military force, and they are also deeply shocked by Qin's undisguised, enterprising, and incomparably eager to dominate the world.

After hundreds of years of war, it is true that there are many people who want to put an end to this troubled era of human life.

But for the kings, princes and nobles of various countries, they hope that it is themselves who will end the troubled times, not that they will be ended by the Qin people.

In the face of such an imminent and serious threat from the Qin State, the five Kwantung countries once again temporarily put aside their prejudices and joined forces again.

Well, Qi continued to stay out of the matter without accident, and was unmoved no matter how the envoys of various countries persuaded him.

In history, until the Qin State destroyed the Five Kingdoms, and millions of soldiers came to the city, they all chose to vote directly, rather than send troops to resist.

As for the root cause, it is naturally not because the people of Qi are pacifists, but because the Five Kingdoms Expedition to Qi decades ago made the Qi country disgusted to death, and almost perished!

The five countries are united, and even Zhou Tianzi has been pulled out to make a big banner, and he wants to step on the Qin State, the horseman of the Great Zhou.

This time, the momentum of the united forces of the five countries was very great, and the soldiers and horses of all countries gathered in the land of Zhou Tianzi, waving flags and waving gongs and drums, and the joint operation lasted for dozens of miles.

The generals first worshiped Zhou Tianzi, and got the holy order to crusade against the tyrannical Qin from Zhou Tianzi, which can be regarded as getting the name of righteousness.

Of course, this so-called righteous name has long been worthless in this era, that is, he fooled himself and thought it sounded good.

You must know that as early as after the Zhou Dynasty moved its capital and left Qishan, they were only left in name.

In history, it was precisely because of this move of Zhou Tianzi that he sent the truth to the Qin State, and soon after, LĂź Buwei completely destroyed the Zhou Dynasty, which was only one city left.

When the king of Shang sent troops to attack Dongyi, the Zhou people seized the opportunity to make a surprise attack, united with the nobles who were robbed of the benefits of the king's innovation, and gave the king of Shang a knife in the back, destroying the Shang Dynasty in one fell swoop.

The Zhou people learned this lesson, and from then on they placed their own people in the safest places, sending all outsiders to the surrounding barbarian lands to overcome obstacles.

Eight hundred years have passed in a blink of an eye, and although the Zhou people have avoided the doom of being stolen, they no longer have the slightest chance to forge ahead.

At this time, there was only one capital city left in the entire Great Zhou, Luoyi.

The five countries discussed it for a while, and finally decided to worship Zhao general Pang Xuan as the commander and lead hundreds of thousands of troops of the five countries to attack Qin.

On the surface, it is indeed a huge momentum.

But in reality, this is not the case.

First of all, there are many contradictions between the five countries, such as Zhao Guo was still fighting with Yan State before, and even the coach Pang Xuan was the vanguard of Yan and killed tens of thousands of Yan troops.

In this case, how could Yan Jun obey Pang Xuan's orders?

Sanjin himself is also constantly in internal disputes, Zhao Guo wants the three Jin to be one, and the farmers working in the fields know it.

But Wei and South Korea, where would this kind of thing be allowed to happen, it is naturally dirty.

As for the State of Chu, the strong Chu who used to compete for hegemony with the Jin State was already scared by the State of Qin at this time, and they have been married to the State of Qin for generations, and even the queen of King Yingzheng of Qin at this time is the daughter of the King of Chu.

In this case, the state of Chu is standard fooling, and it is typical to send troops without contribution.

Each of them has a ghost in their hearts, and the result is that hundreds of thousands of troops have gathered in Luoyi, and there is no idea of being fast at all.

The generals feasted all day long, eating and drinking, and were not happy.

The sergeants also had no fighting spirit, either fighting or looting Luoyi, which really made Zhou Tianzi angry.

It was not until the grain in Luoyi was squeezed out that the Qin side had already assembled a large army to deal with it, and the coalition army here set off slowly.

They traveled all the way west, first conquering the city of Yucheng, which had few defenders, and then continued to move forward after plundering, and then captured Shouling City.

After plundering again and boosting morale a little, he finally came to the front of Hangu Pass.

At this time, Qin Jun's side was already impatient to wait.

The Qin army did not stick to the natural danger of Hangu Pass and left on its own after waiting for the coalition army to run out of food, but took the initiative with great confidence, and under the leadership of Wang Qian, directly killed the Hangu Pass and the coalition army in a decisive battle.

Pang Xuan's ability is very good, and it can even be said that he can break his wrists with the four famous generals.

However, although he has the title of commander, except for the Zhao soldiers under his command, the soldiers and horses of other countries cannot be adjusted at all.

In this case, the decisive battle with the Qin army will naturally result in a predictable situation.

The Qin warriors assaulted with a rampant infantry battle array, and under the cover of dense crossbow arrows, they defeated the Korean army that was arranged at the forefront by Gong Tui in one fell swoop.

The combat effectiveness and will to fight of the South Korean army are definitely the first in the world.

When the three families were divided, first Wei and then Zhao, all of them were once brilliant.

But South Korea is the only one, and it is being beaten from beginning to end.

The tens of thousands of Han troops in the front, Puyi engaged the Qin army, and it didn't take long to resist before they collapsed and fled.

The soldiers of the Qin army who killed the red eyes even simply threw away the armor that was in the way, and chased and killed with a roar while carrying weapons.

After the Han army, the Yan army resisted for a while, but the result was the same.

Under the impact of the Qin army's sharp soldiers, the Yan army was also defeated and fled.

By this time, the situation of the battle was clear, and the coalition forces were bound to lose.

When Pang Xuan, who was in a hurry, was about to arrange manpower to block the Qin army's assault, he suddenly heard bad news, the Chu army, which had the strongest troops and stayed in the rear as a reserve, actually ran away directly!

The Chu army's run directly put Zhao and Wei in place.

The morale of the army is directly poured out of thousands of miles.

Pang Xuan was so helpless that he could only look up to the sky and sigh, and then hurriedly ran away with Zhao Guo's soldiers and horses.

Wang Jian on the Qin army's side was still thinking about the follow-up attack routine, but he was stunned to see that the coalition army fell apart directly.

I can't use any routines now, so I can only urgently send out all the new cavalry in my hands to chase and kill.

In this battle outside the Hangu Pass, the coalition forces were beheaded by tens of thousands, and there was no doubt that they suffered a great defeat.

From then on, the Kwantung countries were no longer able to organize a large-scale coalition army, and could only watch the Qin State eat them all bite by bite.

Theoretically, the number of allied armies of various countries was no less than that of the Qin army.

Their level of training is not necessarily worse than that of the Qin army.

After all, it is a country that has been trained by hundreds of years of war, and the skills and tactics of all the people are not weak.

As for weapons and equipment, don't look at the fact that the Qin army has already raised the bronze to the extreme level, but the actual utility is actually inferior to the iron weapons equipped by the coalition forces on a large scale.

However, the result was that the coalition army was defeated again and again, whether it was dealt with alone or joined forces, it was beaten by the Qin army and vomited blood.

Even if there are occasional victories, they can't stop the trend of the times.

Dig deeper, the root cause is the biggest crux of the cold weapon era, the sergeants are unwilling to die!

In the era of cold weapons, usually when the casualties were five percent, some troops could not bear it and began to break and flee.

When there are 10 percent casualties, 90 percent of the army will be defeated.

If the casualties reach 20 percent and can continue to fight, it is definitely a world-famous powerhouse.

This kind of thing seems inconceivable to the armies of the modern world, which often suffer more than half of the casualties.

The reason is actually very simple, the soldiers of this era are mainly composed of ordinary Qianshou people.

Their lives are already very hard.

Throughout the year, he was either busy in the fields, or he was drafted to fight wars or to do work in labor.

Most of the harvest was taken away by the kings, and the rest was not even enough to feed their families.

The sergeants were not treated as human beings at all, and their lives were extremely difficult, so how could they go to work for the kings?

If you live like a slave and have to fight to the death for the king, isn't that a crime?

This kind of thing has been the case in all dynasties, and the reason why tens of thousands of armies were frightened into collapse by dozens of horsemen is also here.

How good it is to keep your life to go home with your wife and children, no one wants to throw it to the emperor of heaven!

The reason why the soldiers of the Qin State are different, and even the strong army of the later Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty, and even the world-famous Yue family army, dare to fight, the only reason is that the benefits are in place.

Even if it is the Yue family's army, they only go to war when they have enough food and salary.

In order to raise military expenses for the Yue family's army, the small court of the Southern Song Dynasty even scraped the gold dust on the Buddha statue.

Qin State has military merits here to confer knighthood, and if you make military merits, you will be given corresponding benefits, and the sergeants are naturally willing to work hard.

In fact, this military merit award is Wei Wushu, who was born from Wu Qilong.

At that time, Wei Wushu was also fed enough to be able to run rampant in the world.

Now, the kings only know how to ask for it, and the sergeants are certainly not willing to sell their lives.

The sergeants were unwilling to give their lives, and when they fought, they were naturally defeated again and again until the country was destroyed.

The battle outside Hangu Pass directly shattered the last bit of confidence of the Kwantung States, and from then on, no one in the world could resist the Qin State soldiers.

After hundreds of years of turmoil, the dawn of domination of the world has finally arrived.
